Senere, når posen er fuld og Uglemor skal på indkøb, kommer flasken sammen med de andre af sin slags hen og bliver afleveret.
Så var det Uglemor begyndte at tænke:
- Hvor meget får jeg egentlig for den flaske?
- Hvornår steg panttaksterne egenlig sidst?
- Hvorfor er det lige at de er så lave?
Svarene ligger heldigvis på nettet:
- Uglemor får 1 krone for sin møje.
- Panttaksterne er ikke steget siden 12. februar 2004, hvor de blev sat ned fra 1,50 krone.
- Officielt fordi prisen på panten skal være under nyprisen for en flaske.
- ♻ -
Uglemor undrer sig fortsat. For i de lande, vi sammenligner os med, er panten omkring det dobbelte (2 norske/svenske kroner eller som i Tyskland 0,25 € for engangsflasker).
Vi ved alle, at miljøet ikke har godt af flasker og dåser, at køer især ikke har godt af aluminiumsdåser.
En heldig glasflaske kan genbruges 40 gange.
Børn og fattigrøve burde kæmpe om flaskerne i grøftekanten, men nu bliver de i stadig højere grad efterladt på borde i skolerne, ved busstoppesteder og som morgenens flaske, kastet ud gennem bilvinduer.
Måske burde panten sættes op til en femmer i stedet?
Dåse, Uglemor ikke fandt, fpr det var for sent. - ♻ - A can, MotherOwl did not see until too late. |
This morning on my way home I found a beer bottle in the ditch. As always I picked it up, to put in the bag with other bottles for later cashing in town.
MotherOwl began wondering:
- How much is the deposit for this bottle?
- When was the deposit last changed?
- Why is is so little money?
An internet search did - of course - supply MotherOwl with the answers:
- The deposit for a beer bottle is DKK 1,00
- It was lowered from DKK 1,50 back in February 2004
- Yes why? The official explanation is that the deposit must not be undercut by the price of a new bottle.
- ♻ -
MotherOwl is still wondering. In the surrounding countries, the deposit is almost double what it is in Denmark (2 Swedish / Norwegian kroner, 0,25€ in Germany (PET bottles)).
We all know that plastic bottles are not good for the environment, and that alu-cans are not good for cows.
A lucky glass bottle can be reused 40 times!
MotherOwl sees an increasing number of bottles and cans laying around everywhere. - and an increasing number without deposit symbols. They are found at the tables in school, by the bus stop, and as this morning's bottle, thrown from a passing car.
Children and poor people should be busy picking up the left bottles. Maybe it's time to raise the deposit on bottles, cans etc?
